Be aware that netscape throws the @ with anything that follows it away.
At least it used to do so, which is why I allow a semicolon instead of
an @ as well.

I don't know if Exim supports that and if SMTP AUTH is like IMAP AUTH, but
read about CRAM-MD5 for AUTH in imap, RFC2195, which I just have in front
of me:

Keyed MD5 is chosen for this application because of the greater
security imparted to authentication of short messages. In addition,
the use of the techniques described in [KEYED-MD5] for precomputation
of intermediate results make it possible to avoid explicit cleartext
storage of the shared secret on the server system by instead storing
the intermediate results which are known as "contexts".
